  It is probably because of the quantity of content you need in a day. You need at least 22 minutes of stand-up or sketch along with talking points or skits with celebrities. That is a lot of work, even if it fit something generally bland and forgettable.

  It also probably doesn’t help that Fallon came from SNL, which famously has a bad work culture.
